Eric swallowed hard as he watched Calleigh walk to the elevator after the kiss she shared with Jake. When their eyes finally met, his heart broke. After the doors closed, he turned his attention back to Jake, whose gaze was towards the elevator. "You don't deserve her," he blurted suddenly.

Jake whirled around and gave Eric his full attention. Rocking on his heels, he shrugged. "You're right. I don't." Eric was speechless at Jake's brusqueness. Jake's mouth twitched into a celebratory smile and Eric's guts churned as Jake continued.

"But in the end, I've got her. And that's all that matters."

FIN.
